Cynthia Zamora with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Cynthia Zamora, aggrieved parent of the Hempstead Middle School over use of English in school.

said the principal needed to address the issue of speaking Spanish as an attitude thing and Ingraham countered that the principal wanted the children to practice Spanish for standardized tests. She shared her own experience in a Spanish immersion class. Samora said half the students in the school is bilingual. Ingraham said this all seems to have been blown out of proportion. Zamora said that the principal was supposed to call her to clarify issues and didn't.
